The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

“This man is so handsome, boss, he’s almost as handsome as you!” Kang Zhi complimented. The man on the picture was handsome. “Is this Dong Yun’s son? He doesn’t look like his father at all!” Hearing that, Yu Xuan who was leaving, turned back. She rushed to Kang Zhi’s and explained, “Ah, officer, you misunderstood. This is a picture of our chairman when he was young. He was quite handsome but being an entrepreneur took a great toll out of him. Actually we found this picture on Andy recently, you can ask him about it later.”

Mo Li looked around and saw a door. She pointed at the door and asked, “Didn’t you say the elevator is the only entrance? What about that door?”

“Oh… that…” Yu Xuan’s face froze with embarrassment, “The door leads to a fire exit, but it hasn’t been used for years already, plus…” Yu Xuan found the key and then slowly opened the door. A stinging smell of body fluid and aphrodisiac drifted out.

“Jesus, what is that smell?” Kang Zhi closed his nose and looked into the room. “My god, a sex swing, love chair, chains, whips, ropes, your boss has like a whole sex room here. This is a whole sex store!”

“You’re right, the chairman has some unique interest but as the staff, we normally just pretend to ignore it.” Yu Xuan lowered her face with shyness.

Mo Li studied the love chair and the swing. They were too small for Dong Yun, so who were they for?

“Who set up this place for Dong Yun?” Xiao Rui frowned.

“I have no idea, I swear! I don’t know anything about the boss’ private life!” Yu Xuan quickly shook her head.

“Are those oxygen tanks for Dong Yun too? He has the habit of taking oxygen shots?” Mo Li asked and Yu Xuan nodded. “Yes, because oxygen can help clear the mind so our boss will take a shot of oxygen at regular intervals every day. However, for some reason, the supplier didn’t come to recycle the tanks for this batch and they have been left here for a long time already.”

Kang Zhi picked up a small tank to examine it. “Miss Mo Li, how did you know they’re oxygen tanks? You didn’t even look at them closely!” Whenever Mo Li did something, Kang Zhi would be impressed. Xiao Rui sighed, it made the police look like they didn’t know anything.

“It’s something I studied in class. According to government regulation, to ensure safety, when a company bottles different types of air, their container has to have different colors. Blue is for oxygen.”

“Yes, this is called oxygen therapy, it’s quite popular among certain crowd. I helped chairman with the therapy daily.” Yu Xuan added.

“I have no idea being a secretary is so difficult nowadays. You even have to do these things? You’re more like his nanny already!” Kang Zhi groused.

“Erm… Even though my official role is his secretary… my actual job scope involves many things. I help the chairman clean, tidy as well as handle his living and eating.”

Kang Zhi turned to Xiao Rui, he thought his boss was already an interesting specimen but this Dong Yun was worse.

“Does this man have no limbs? Why did he need people to do these normal things for him?”

“Don’t speak ill of the dead.” Xiao Rui warned.

“The work is not that hard for me, at least when compared to Mr. Zhao…” Yu Xuan’s eyes dimmed. It was like there was something affecting her.

“Mr. Zhao? The driver?”

“Right, it’s about time we meet the other people.” Xiao Rui then turned to Mo Li. “Is there any other problem with the crime scene?”

Mo Li already had an idea in her mind. “Miss Yu, can you give me a layout drawing of this building?”

“Of course, there should be one in the chairman’s office.” Yu Xuan went to open one of the shelves.

Mo Li studied Yu Xuan and she frowned. The woman hadn’t reacted in any way when she saw Mo Li and that was the strangest thing. Mo Li’s picture was inside Dong Yun’s desk and Yu Xuan said that she handled Dong Yun’s everyday life and cleaning of his home and office. Therefore, she had to have seen Mo Li’s picture before. So why did she act like she didn’t recognize Mo Li? Plus why was Yu Xuan at Huan Yu that day? These were all worth pondering.

Mo Li wanted to examine Dong Yun’s office more when Kang Zhi got the message that Mr. Zhao and Andy were already waiting for them. The 5 of them went down the elevator.

…

Xiao Rui looked at the files Si Lin gave him and looked at the man who stood before him. “According to the files, your name is Zhao Hongwei, but in the car cam, your boss often referred to you as Ol’ Wei, why is that?”

“Oh! It’s because the boss’ original driver was someone called Wei Xiang. He was used to calling his driver Ol’ Wei and I didn’t mind it.”
